FAQ
GAL to DXF Conversion
What are GAL files?
GAL is a graphics file of HP Graphics Gallery, also known as HP Charting Gallery, business graphics software released by Hewlett-Packard for DOS PCs in 1989. It was used to prepare presentation charts, diagrams, and drawings in color for reports, slides, and overhead transparencies, and it came with a collection of ready-made business graphics. A file of this type contains a two- or three-dimensional graphic created by the user, such as a pie, bar, or line chart, or a drawing built from lines, shapes, and text. Because the program has been out of use for a long time, regular image viewers do not open these files.
The extension is also used by two other, unrelated formats: GenePix array lists, which are text files of microarray layouts for scientific scanners, and clip-art libraries of Corel Multimedia Manager.
What are DXF files?
DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) is a format associated with AutoCAD, a popular program used for computer-aided design by engineers, architects and other professionals in the field of building design and construction. The DXF format was developed in the early 1980s by Autodesk with the purpose of increasing the interoperability between AutoCAD and other CAD or advanced image design programs. It supports 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional drawings, and can be opened using a wide array of image processing programs.
